The Origins of the Commercial Dumpster & Choosing One

It’s no secret that disposal bins are our specialty here, and if you were ever to stop by in person at either of our locations in Trenton our Colborne dumpsters are what we could talk about for hours. We can also get one out to your job site or your residence the same day when you call us and request a dumpster rental, and you’ll see why the roll-off bins we have are the best for both our trucks and your property. Enough with the self-promotion for now though, what we’re going to do now is look at commercial dumpster design from as much of an evolutionary perspective as is possible with us. Let’s start by making it interesting and maybe a little surprising. Dempster isn’t an uncommon surname in North America, and you’ll see it as one of the predominant brands of bread at supermarkets in Canada. Back in the 1930s there was a… Read More

New App Identifies Recyclable Products

There are more than 8 billion people on the planet, and more and more of them are being enfranchised for a 1st-world, carbon intensive, and mega consumerist lifestyle all the time. That has the potential to turn out really badly for all of us in the long run, but your Liberal globalist overlords would prefer it if we don’t think about that. But if there’s one thing we can talk about and agree upon it’s that anything and everything that has reached the end of its working life and can stay out of the trash should stay out of it. The amount of waste being produced by so many people living a super-modern, ultra-urban lifestyle isn’t realistically going to be curbed, but if there’s anything that can be done to promote more recycling and repurposing then we should all be getting behind that 100%. Our expertise is with dumpster rentals for the Trenton and Colborne… Read More

New Battery Sorting Technology Being Utilized in Ontario

The nature of battery use to power devices and other tools of all sorts has changed a lot over recent decades. The fact that there’s been more of a shift to rechargeable ones from disposable ones has been hugely beneficial when seen in the frame of waste management, plus with fewer of them being disposed of improperly. But the rechargeable batteries – especially the larger lithium ones – are definitely presenting their own sets of problems. Ones that exist far above and beyond the scope of our expertise here at Load n’ Lift, which of course is dumpster rentals in Trenton and Colborne and waste disposal for this entire are of Ontario to the east of the GTA. That’s not to say we haven’t collected batteries before in the course of our services, but one thing that is important to know is that we always dispose of ALL waste responsibly as per Ontario Provincial regulations… Read More

Trash Traps Keeping Toronto Harbour Cleaner

Here in our part of Ontario we are quite a ways from Canada’s biggest and most densely populated city, but anytime there’s new technology put into use for waste collection and recycling we’re going to take note no matter where in Canada that’s happening. Our specialty may be with dumpster rentals for Trenton and Colborne areas of the Province, but we always take interest in waste management trends of any type. With Toronto being the Canadian city with the highest number of people residing there means a whole lot of trash is produced there, and like any big city some of it is going to end up where it shouldn’t be. No one is going to select disposal bin rentals and have them set up along the harbor front on Lake Ontario there, and even if the city would allow it a lot of trash would still end up in the water. That has been… Read More

Biomass Energy Production Potential Spurring Ontario Provincial Investment

Being a dumpster rental service provider for Colborne and Trenton we have seen pretty much everything being dumped into our delivered disposal bins as all types of waste that needs to be collected and disposed of properly. We’ve built a good reputation for service with waste collection and disposal in this part of Ontario, and you may well have seen red trucks with the Load n’ Lift logo on the side driving down the highway delivering one of dumpster bin rentals to a job site of any sort in this part of the Province. As you’d expect, the one type of disposal waste we don’t see much of with our waste bin collection is bio waste, but when we look at what’s produced as waste on the Provincial level there’s been a real trend where this type of waste is increasingly redirected in recycling and disposal channels to be processed into biofuels. Now it’s also… Read More

Leading Waste Management Trends for 2024

Here we are well past a full month into 2024 and one of the things that’s been very notable in Canada is how it hasn’t been as cold as normal this winter. And hearing that Toronto has banned tobogganing in the city has certainly come as a surprise as here in Ontario outdoor winter fun has always been a big thing for us. Some people don’t mind that there hasn’t been as much snow as year’s previous, but most of us know it’s not something we should be happy about. Climate change is concerning, and the waste management industry is one of the many that need to be part of addressing that concern. We are a dumpster rental provider in Trenton and Colborne and we’re still free to do as much sledding as we please, but we adhere to the belief that we all need to be better about what we throw away and there… Read More

New Penalties for Landfill Polluters in Ontario are Very Welcome

New Penalties for Landfill Polluters in Ontario are Very Welcome

Burgeoning urban populations are very much the trend worldwide and especially so here in North America. One of the inevitabilities that comes with this is increased waste management challenges based on the fact that so many more people are producing household and other waste and it is accumulating in greater amounts at the same locations. That volume stands to become unmanageable unless civic and municipal governments pivot to accommodate it accordingly, and here in Ontario our Province has done well with it to this point. Waste disposal sites will include landfills, and of course as a Colborne and Trenton dumpster rental service we’re explicitly familiar with the workings of them. We also know that regulations limiting what can and cannot be entered into a landfill need to be enforced with a lot more teeth, and the good news is that new penalties for landfill polluters here indicate that may be starting to happen. Call us… Read More

Aim For 1/3rd Yearly Reduction in Single-Use Plastics in Canada

Most of us learn at a young age that plastic is the furthest thing from biodegradable, and you had to have turned the deafest of ears to the media to not know that improperly disposed of / recycled plastic is an even bigger problem than it needs to be here in North America. We say bigger than it needs to be because the sheer ubiquity of plastic in our lives makes it pretty much impossible than massive volumes of it get thrown out daily. But the reasons it is more of a problem is just that; plastic is going to be around for a long time and that means it needs to be recycled and reused as much as possible. Plastic waste mismanagement is a problem here too, and while our area of expertise is always going to be with Colborne and Trenton dumpster rentals we are always going to take an interest in waste… Read More

Move to Have Recycling Instructions of Packaging Gaining Momentum in USA

One of the more promising things from a practical environmental stewardship perspective these days is the push to restrict the extent to which perishables are packaged in plastic. People at ground level in any number of different occupations can see the genuine nature of the need for that, and that applies to use here at Load n’ lift to at least some extent too. It’s not uncommon for us to see plastic waste that needs to be properly redirected when we pick up our disposal bin rentals in Trenton and Colborne Ontario areas and we always like to stress with our business how ALL waste is always 100% disposed of properly after it leaves the site. Getting back to a bigger picture perspective though, here in Canada and all along our massive border with the USA we are always happy to have Americans as our neighbors. We have always learned a lot from each other,… Read More
